OoC:The five of you it is...
IC: Heading out of Orussus as fast as possible while maintaining a modicum of safety regarding the wet roads, you quickly begin eating up the miles between the City and Delmon's Tower. The Roadwarden goes with you for part of the journey, as far as the Roadhouse where he is stationed (3 miles out or so).
There, you pause,where there is fresh bread and hot tea, contemplating your mission. Many of the same faces that some of you saw before, on your way to and from the Vingarius Vinyards are here, though more are out and some are at the Estate, helping protect the workers who are cleaning and doing repairs.
After a half an hour, which the horses appreciated in a warm barn, you are ready to journey onwards again.
The roads become a sigt more muddy and are washed out in a few places, though easy enough to traverse on horseback. If you were afoot, it would be a less tha pleasant experience, and you are all quite glad for the loan of the steeds.
Perhaps some six miles past the Roadhoues, and coming on 4 in the afternoon, as you reckon it in the rainy gloom, you reach the place where the Map shows the best route to the Tower would begin. There is no road, though a path moves off through the sparce trees, made by supply horses or mules, no doubt.
In any event, it should be another three miles or so, if all distances have been marked properly...
